automatico Posted February 6, 2020 Report Share Posted February 6, 2020 "How can i get hands for TC sub? Are they superlumed?" I bought some crowns etc from TC when he was active but no hands, maybe someone on the forum knows the source of the hands he used. I have used hands from a few different suppliers...ST, Clark, Yuki etc and honestly none had very impressive glow in the dark. Hands... One thing that keeps hands looking new from the original packaging to mounting them on the watch is to handle the hands with 'Rodico' or a similar watch putty if possible and use 'Rodico' etc to hold them during installation. Touching them with bare fingers can leave hard to remove smudges and if you smudge the lume it is usually done for. Do not use tweezers to handle or position them and invest in a hand press or a set of plastic tipped hand pushers and put a layer of 'Saran Wrap' or a small section of a plastic bag etc between the tool and hand when mounting them to prevent scratches. Scratches on hands detract from the overall appearance and are near impossible to remove. Be careful if you have to bend a hand for clearance because the lume can easily crack. In short...watch hands are a royal pain to deal with. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomhorn Posted February 6, 2020 Report Share Posted February 6, 2020 Afraid unless someone else has found his original supplier, since TC is long ago gone from the rep scene, the only way to get them now is with an M2M sale. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
